Then a more fine-tuned Combinations Table. Finally, to force Epl to allocate the remaining pool shifts, he would use an almost complete table of combinations that gives some (inevitable) unnormal cycles. As it takes only seconds to replace the entire table with new data (copy/paste), you are able to change the way RPL works at any time. An easy way is to keep additional Combinations Tables on a separate sheet. Then copy the relevant table into the A- or B-Combinations column. Use Copy and Paste Values. Be sure there are no old combinations left over, if the new table is smaller than the previous. That way you could have many sets of combinations, each matching specific criteria.
Priority Levels The combination tables are capable of handling 3 priority levels: Change a combination to another priority by selecting it and press Red (priority 1), Yellow (priority 2) or Green (priority 3). White combinations (priority not yet decided) are sorted last in row. RPL considers combinations with priority 1 to be used before priority 2, etc. Edition: 2.27
